Jeremy Stanley c147dc4b5b Publish structured data listing our ML archives
In order to collect historical statistics on usage of our mailing
lists, we need an index of not only the current lists (which we
could get from Mailman) but also retired lists (which could only be
found by knowing the URL to their archives). Ultimately we should
publish hyperlinks to these so they'll continue to be indexed by
search engines, but for now start with structured YAML, which we
could later use to build that too.

Because the only way to determine the names of retired lists is from
the listserv's filesystem, we'll run a simple script once daily to
refresh the index and keep it in the Web root alongside the
robots.txt file. In the future, this could be triggered instead by
addition of new mailing lists, though while we're still managing
them with Puppet it's not clear how to go about doing that.

Of course restrict this to only indexing public list archives, as
privately-archived lists won't be accessible to the general public
by design.

OpenDev System Configuration

This is the machinery that drives the configuration, testing, continuous integration and deployment of services provided by the OpenDev project.

Services are driven by Ansible playbooks and associated roles stored here. If you are interested in the configuration of a particular service, starting at playbooks/service-<name>.yaml will show you how it is configured.

Most services are deployed via containers; many of them are built or customised in this repository; see docker/.

A small number of legacy services are still configured with Puppet. Although the act of running puppet on these hosts is managed by Ansible, the actual core of their orchestration lives in manifests and modules.

Testing

OpenDev infrastructure runs a complete testing and continuous-integration environment, powered by Zuul.

Any changes to playbooks, roles or containers will trigger jobs to thoroughly test those changes.

Tests run the orchestration for the modified services on test nodes assigned to the job. After the testing deployment is configured (validating the basic environment at least starts running), specific tests are configured in the testinfra directory to validate functionality.

Continuous Deployment

Once changes are reviewed and committed, they will be applied automatically to the production hosts. This is done by Zuul jobs running in the deploy pipeline. At any one time, you may see these jobs running live on the status page or you could check historical runs on the pipeline results (note there is also an opendev-prod-hourly pipeline, which ensures things like upstream package updates or certificate renewals are incorporated in a timely fashion).

Contributing

Contributions are welcome!

You do not need any special permissions to make contributions, even those that will affect production services. Your changes will be automatically tested, reviewed by humans and, once accepted, deployed automatically.

Bug fixes or modifications to existing code are great places to start, and you will see the results of your changes in CI testing.

You can develop all the playbooks, roles, containers and testing required for a new service just by uploading a change. Using a similar service as a template is generally a good place to start. If deploying to production will require new compute resources (servers, volumes, etc.) these will have to be deployed by an OpenDev administrator before your code is committed. Thus if you know you will need new resources, it is best to coordinate this before review.

The #opendev IRC channel is the main place for interactive discussion. Feel free to ask any questions and someone will try to help ASAP. The OpenDev meeting is a co-ordinated time to synchronize on infrastructure issues. Issues should be added to the agenda for discussion; even if you can not attend, you can raise your issue and check back on the logs later. There is also the service-discuss mailing list where you are welcome to send queries or questions.
